IMHO, I wouldn't spray POR15 unless you have some serious safety equipment.
POR15 is very unhealthy to breath. If you spray via a gun, the paint molecules
could linger in the air long after you are done. If you don't have a pro
spray booth that vents away the lingering air, you could risk future illness.
Keep it in liquid form and just paint it on. It's worked well for me. Besides
POR15 doesn't like UV light and will change shade. I'm currently in the same
phase as you. I have my bumper, skid plate and hitch plus underneath scraping
off rust and preparing to paint POR15. Once I have that done, I will rattle
spray parts like the bumper with bed liner rhino type stuff. It will give
it a more rugged look and protect the por15 from UV.

Re: Recomendations for a paint gun
I' sprayed por 15 and it is pretty nasty but if I had it to do over again I
would still spray, Get any of the gravity feed cup on top) They spray better
and waste less. Do n't spend to much on one just for por 15 as if you don't
clean it well enough it will be junk anyway
